Spinach salad with snow peas & avocado

I feel like I wasn’t really too creative for this prompt. I started by going to my garden…harvesting what I could find…then chucked it all together to make a spring spinach salad, haha.

Seasonal spinach salad

I mean, could you get much more “seasonal” than produce straight from your garden? I harvested some baby spinach, snow peas and borage flowers – the lime and avocado weren’t from my garden unfortunately (maybe one day I will have an avocado tree and lime tree…one day…). The spinach salad is just screaming SPRING to me :)

This spinach salad was fresh and crisp, a refreshingly light salad after a winter of comfort foods (like gnocchi and ravioli). I’m really feeling the need to eat light foods now – bring on the nicecream for breakfast! I dressed the salad really simply with just the juice of half a lime – fresh and zingy :)

Oh I love this salad – spinach is super yummy! Having an avocado tree is like my ultimate dream :D and lime wouldn’t be too bad either hahaa.
I’m sooo jealous you’re having spring right now! All that wonderful produce <3
The only thing I can harvest from my garden right now are chilis… oh and herbs. I had nasturtium flowers last year and those were so pretty in a salad too. :)

I know, imagine all the free avocados you can get from your own tree :O I know, I love spring, so much more variety with the produce available! Chillies and herbs are still good though :D I tried growing nasturtiums from seed last year but I don’t know, they didn’t really work out for me…but nasturtium flowers are lovely, almost peppery :)
